Weapons Charges

In Texas, there are strict laws and penalties associated with the unlawful possession and use of weapons. While we think of weapons charges involving only firearms, it is important to recognize that there are many different weapons that are prohibited by Texas law. These weapons include handguns, clubs (any object used to strike someone), illegal knives, switchblades, explosives, or other firearms.
